We are delighted to announce that our next blade will be the BMC Ghoul Golok. As the name suggests, it will join our Chopra on the BMC Machete roster.
The Ghoul will be lighter weight and marginally shorter than the Chopra, coming in at a lithe 600g and overall length of 460mm. The weight savings are gained through having a distal tapered blade, running down from 5mm in front of the handle to a thin but still robust 3.3mm at the tip. It also has a faceted spine, positioned to not compromise batoning, but to limit deep-chop-pinching and a skeletonised full tang.
The Ghoul is inspired by a British Military Golok, but our interpretation takes the blade to a completely new level. Improvements include:
3D shaped super ergonomic Micarta handle for great grip and hours of comfortable use.
Faceted blade design includes a confined swedge and numerous lanyard points for adaptability in various environments.
High quality N690 steel blade, machined in Italy and coated for supreme quality and durability.
A choice of Italian Leather or British produced Kydex sheath available. Luxury and traditional = Leather. Functional, long-lasting and Tactical = Kydex.
This blade has been designed and made to British Military specs with the intention of gaining entry for use with the British Armed Forces.
More updates and info will be released as the prototypes evolve. Stay tuned!
Cheers, Ian
